Christopher Owens @ Bowery Ballroom, 1/22/2013

Christopher Owens played his first of two Bowery Ballroom shows last night (1/21). Playing the bulk of his solo debut, Lysandre, which barely clocks in at a half-hour, the former Girls frontman then came back for a set of covers. Given the ’70s AM vibe of his album, his choices seemed pretty appropriate: Cat Stevens’ “Wild World,” Donavan’s “Lalena,” Simon & Garfunkle’s “The Boxer,” The Everly Brothers’ “Let it Be Me” and Bob Dylan’s “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right.”

Melted Toys opened the night and will do so again with Owens tonight (1/22) and tickets are still available. Pics from Melted Toys set and more of Owens’ are below.
